Halloween and Football!!

Another month has come and gone, and I have NO idea how it happened!! October is always a busy month for us, but esp this year...Halloween festivities, field trips, therapy, and football have consumed our lives over the past few weeks.

A few Saturday's ago we went over to our old church's Fall Festival and had so much fun! It was so great to see everyone! It has been several months since we've been there, but even so, it still feels somewhat like "home." The boys all went as Star Wars characters: Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker, and Yoda :]

I bought all three costumes last year on clearance at Target for a total of like $7...I plan on doing the same thing this week when everything gets marked down to 90% off...can't beat a good deal!

This past Wednesday, we took the boys to new church's Awana Trunk-or-Treat and festival. We had a last minute football practice right before the festival, so we got there a little late and didn't stay long because by the time we went through the parking lot and played a few games inside, Grant was DONE! Which is why he looks so..ahem...excited in the picture, haha!

On Halloween morning, the elementary school always hosts a breakfast for Dads and Grandfathers to come to. They eat doughnuts and carve pumpkins...the boys were SOO excited because both Kane and my dad went, and they let Carson hang out in Harp's class for the morning so they could all be together! Afterwards, they had a Book Character Parade (They dress as a character from a book, and march around the school holding their books). Carson really wanted to wear his doctor costume (also a Target clearance snag from last year!), so he picked a random book that happened to have a doctor in it, and Harp was Superman from his favorite easy reader book! Grant wore his firefighter costume to the school to cheer his brothers on!

It was such a fun (and busy) week!!

**********

Our Football season is officially over! The boys had such a great time, and the boys' team ended up runner-up overall...which is SOO awesome!

This picture was taken a few weeks ago at scrimmage game against a team from another county...it was FREEZING at this game! And they aren't allowed to wear toboggans during play :/

I took this pic last weekend after they won the semifinal game 30-28...who would have ever thought Flag Football could get so intense?! haha! By the way-their game that morning was at 8:30 am, it was 30something degrees, and the field was iced. Grant was miserable during this game because he couldn't move from all the layers, haha!

This was from yesterday at the Championship game..we lost by only 1 touchdown!

All for now...I know I'm not very regular on my blog anymore, and I'm rarely on FB either, but you can follow along on my Instagram account!
